If Trouble Arises

Flat Tire

NOTE



  Check the tire inflation pressure label 

driver's door frame for the correct tire 

inflation pressure.



  Do not operate the air compressor 

for a continuous 10 minutes or longer 

because using it for long periods could 

cause a malfunction.



  If the tire inflation pressure does 

not increase, repair of the tire is not 

possible. If the tire does not reach the 

specified tire inflation pressure within 

10 minutes, it may have received 

extensive damage. In this case, the 

repair using the emergency flat tire 

repair kit was not successful. Contact 

an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

13. Adhere the speed restriction sticker to 

an area where it can be viewed easily 

by the driver.

14. Adhere the repaired tire sticker to the 

wheel of the flat tire.

WARNING

Do not adhere the speed restriction 

sticker to the padded area on the 

steering wheel: 

Adhering the speed restriction sticker 

to the padded area on the steering 

wheel is dangerous because the 

air bag may not operate (deploy) 

normally resulting in serious injury. 

In addition, do not adhere the sticker 

to areas where warning lights or the 

speedometer cannot be viewed.

15. When the tire inflates to the specified 

tire inflation pressure, turn the air 

compressor switch off, turn the sleeve 

of the injection hose to the left, and pull 

it out of the tire valve.
